** Description changed:

  I'm using Ubuntu Raring.
  
  I have a printer shared with some computers over ethernet using a d-link
  printserver using a LPD protocol.
  
  To install it on my computer I go in gnome-control-center, then
  printers, and finally add new printer. It opens a window in which I
  should see it recognized my printer connected and it should be ready to
  install it, but the only thing I see in the window i the "no printers
  detected" message. I'm sure the printer is connected because older
  Ubuntu version (i.e. 12.04) can recognize and install it.
  
- So i tried running system-config-printer from the command line and I saw
+ So I tried running system-config-printer from the command line and I saw
  the old printers window, the one I usually see in Ubuntu 12.04. Clickng
  "add" from that window the printer is recognized and i can install it.
  So, for now I found a workaround, but I wonder how should a newbie do in
  order to install a LPD printer? If the printer section in gnome-control-
  center lacks some type of printer configuration/recoognization shouldn't
  be better to reintroduce the old ugly but functional printer window
  instead of this nice but not functional and confusing window?
